13184. Who'll Be The Next?

1 Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who’ll be the next His cross to bear?
Some one is ready, someone is waiting;
Who’ll be the next a crown to wear?

Refrain:
Who’ll be the next? Who’ll be the next?
Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus now?
Follow Jesus now?

2 Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus—
Follow His weary, bleeding feet?
Who’ll be the next to lay every burden
Down at the Father’s mercy seat? [Refrain]

3 Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who’ll be the next to praise His name?
Who’ll swell the chorus of free redemption,
Sing, Hallelujah! praise the Lamb? [Refrain]

4 Who’ll be the next to follow Jesus
Down thro’ the Jordan’s rolling tide?
Who’ll be the next to join with the ransomed,
Singing upon the other side? [Refrain]
